Author: Alfiya A. Safiullina, Tatiana M. Uskach, Oleg V. Sapelnikov, Marina A. Saidova, Alexey A. Ansheles, Vladimir B. Sergienko, Valeria A. Amanatova, Igor R. Grishin, Dmitry I. Cherkashin, Renat S. Akchurin, and Sergey N. Tereschenko
Subjects: modulation of cardiac contractility, endocardial electrodes, improvement of electrode positioning, chronic heart failure, myocardial scintigraphy, Medicine
Abstract: Aim. To evaluate the efficacy and safety of the advanced technique for positioning the endocardial electrodes of a cardiac contractility modulation (CCM) device. Materials and methods. The CCM system was implanted in 100 patients, of which 60 CCM electrodes were positioned in the most optimal zones of myocardial perfusion, in particular, in the zone of the minor focal-scar/fibrotic lesion (the Summed Rest Score of 0 to 1–2, the intensity of the radiopharmaceutical at least 30%), and in 40 patients according to the standard procedure. Before the implantation of the CCM system, 60 patients underwent tomography (S-SPECT) of the myocardium with 99mTc-methoxy-isobutyl-isonitrile at rest to determine the most optimal electrode positioning zones and 100 patients underwent transthoracic echocardiography at baseline and after 12 months to assess the effectiveness of surgical treatment. Results. Improved ventricular electrode positioning technique is associated with the best reverse remodeling of the left ventricular myocardium, especially in patients with ischemic chronic heart failure, with less radiation exposure to the surgeon and the patient, and without electrode-related complications. Conclusion. At the preoperative stage, it is recommended to perform a synchronized single-photon emission computed tomography of the myocardium with 99mTc-methoxy-isobutyl-isonitrile at rest before implantation of the CCM device to assess the presence of scar zones/myocardial fibrosis in the anterior and inferior septal regions of the interventricular septum of the left ventricle, followed by implantation of ventricular electrodes in the zone of the minor scar/fibrous lesion, which will allow to achieve optimal stimulation parameters, increase the effectiveness of CCM therapy, reduce the radiation exposure on medical personnel and the patient during surgery.

3. Expert Center for cardiac amyloidosis: reality and perspectives

Author: Svetlana N. Nasonova, Igor V. Zhirov, Anastasiya A. Shoshina, Yulia F. Osmolovskaya, Alexey A. Ansheles, Olga Ya. Tchaikovskaya, Svetlana V. Dobrovolskaya, Vladimir B. Sergienko, Marina A. Saidova, Sergey N. Tereshchenko, and Sergey A. Boytsov
Subjects: amyloid cardiomyopathy, transthyretin amyloidosis, immunoglobulin amyloid light-chain amyloidosis, echocardiography, myocardial scintigraphy, Medicine
Abstract: Aim. To evaluate the features of diagnosis of amyloid cardiomyopathy (ACMP), differential diagnosis of different types of amyloidosis and its clinical manifestations. Materials and methods. Were analyzed 150 cases of patients who consulted at the Expert Center for Amyloidosis with suspicion of the presence of ACMP. 63 patients were diagnosed with ACMP: 25 (39.7%) – women, 38 (60.3%) – men, with an average age of 64.1±1.5. 36 (57.1%) patients had AL-amyloidosis (immunoglobulin amyloid light-chain amyloidosis), 25 (39.7%) – ATTR-amyloidosis (transthyretin amyloidosis), 2 (3.2%) – AA-amyloidosis with heart failure (reactive systemic amyloidosis caused by hypersecretion of á-globulin). The analysis of clinical manifestations depending on the type of amyloidosis, data of laboratory and instrumental methods of diagnosis is carried out. Results. In most cases, 53 (84.1%) patients, amyloidosis manifested as signs of heart failure. Among cardiac manifestations, shortness of breath (95.2%), general weakness (93.7%), lower limb edema (76.2%) were the most common. To confirm the diagnosis, despite the high accuracy of the speckle-tracking echocardiography and magnetic resonance imaging of the heart with gadolinium, in rare cases a biopsy is required (e.g. there is a combination of clinical signs of several types of amyloidosis). Biopsy of the affected organ was performed in 31 (49.2%) patients. The strategy for further pathogenetic treatment depends on the determination of the type of amyloidosis. Free light chains of immunoglobulins were detected in 57.1% of cases, which allowed diagnosis of AL-amyloidosis. In 17 (38.6%) patients myocardial scintigraphy with 99mTc-pyrophosphate showed signs of ATTR-amyloidosis, which with a negative result of immunochemical studies allows non-invasive diagnosis of it. Conclusion. ACMP is a disease with an extremely adverse prognosis. Raising the awareness of specialists about ACMP is an important goal. With timely diagnosis, pathogenetic therapy can be started early, which will improve the quality of life and prognosis of patients with ACMP.

Subjects: COVID-19, cardiac testing, cardiovascular disease, coronavirus, global health, COVID-19, Delivery of Health Care, Health Personnel, Humans, Pandemics, Surveys and Questionnaires
Abstract: BACKGROUND: The extent to which health care systems have adapted to the COVID-19 pandemic to provide necessary cardiac diagnostic services is unknown. OBJECTIVES: The aim of this study was to determine the impact of the pandemic on cardiac testing practices, volumes and types of diagnostic services, and perceived psychological stress to health care providers worldwide. METHODS: The International Atomic Energy Agency conducted a worldwide survey assessing alterations from baseline in cardiovascular diagnostic care at the pandemics onset and 1 year later. Multivariable regression was used to determine factors associated with procedure volume recovery. RESULTS: Surveys were submitted from 669 centers in 107 countries. Worldwide reduction in cardiac procedure volumes of 64% from March 2019 to April 2020 recovered by April 2021 in high- and upper middle-income countries (recovery rates of 108% and 99%) but remained depressed in lower middle- and low-income countries (46% and 30% recovery). Although stress testing was used 12% less frequently in 2021 than in 2019, coronary computed tomographic angiography was used 14% more, a trend also seen for other advanced cardiac imaging modalities (positron emission tomography and magnetic resonance; 22%-25% increases). Pandemic-related psychological stress was estimated to have affected nearly 40% of staff, impacting patient care at 78% of sites. In multivariable regression, only lower-income status and physicians psychological stress were significant in predicting recovery of cardiac testing. CONCLUSIONS: Cardiac diagnostic testing has yet to recover to prepandemic levels in lower-income countries. Worldwide, the decrease in standard stress testing is offset by greater use of advanced cardiac imaging modalities. Pandemic-related psychological stress among providers is widespread and associated with poor recovery of cardiac testing.

Subjects: INCAPS COVID Investigators Group, Humans, Heart Diseases, Health Care Surveys, Predictive Value of Tests, Europe, Healthcare Disparities, Cardiac Imaging Techniques, Practice Patterns, Physicians', Cardiologists, COVID-19, cardiac imaging techniques, coronary artery disease, Cardiovascular
Abstract: We aimed to explore the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on cardiac diagnostic testing and practice and to assess its impact in different regions in Europe. The online survey organised by the International Atomic Energy Agency Division of Human Health collected information on changes in cardiac imaging procedural volumes between March 2019 and March/April 2020. Data were collected from 909 centres in 108 countries. Centres in Northern and Southern Europe were more likely to cancel all outpatient activities compared with Western and Eastern Europe. There was a greater reduction in total procedure volumes in Europe compared with the rest of the world in March 2020 (45% vs 41%, p=0.003), with a more marked reduction in Southern Europe (58%), but by April 2020 this was similar in Europe and the rest of the world (69% vs 63%, p=0.261). Regional variations were apparent between imaging modalities, but the largest reductions were in Southern Europe for nearly all modalities. In March 2020, location in Southern Europe was the only independent predictor of the reduction in procedure volume. However, in April 2020, lower gross domestic product and higher COVID-19 deaths were the only independent predictors. The first wave of the COVID-19 pandemic had a significant impact on care of patients with cardiac disease, with substantial regional variations in Europe. This has potential long-term implications for patients and plans are required to enable the diagnosis of non-COVID-19 conditions during the ongoing pandemic.

8. A clinical case of hereditary transthyretin amyloidosis. Case report

Author: Anastasia A. Shoshina, Svetlana N. Nasonova, Igor V. Zhirov, Marina A. Saidova, Alexey A. Ansheles, Aleksei N. Meshkov, and Sergey N. Tereshchenko
Subjects: amyloid cardiomyopathy, transthyretin amyloidosis, chronic heart failure, Medicine (General), R5-920, Therapeutics. Pharmacology, RM1-950
Abstract: For several years, there has been a significant increase in the number of patients diagnosed with cardiac amyloidosis. However, there are still difficulties associated with the diagnosis, identifying its type and further treatment of the disease. The diversity of the clinical symptoms, the absence of pathognomonic symptoms make it difficult to diagnose, which leads to the progression of the disease. Heart involvement is the main cause of morbidity and mortality in systemic amyloidosis, regardless of the underlying pathogenesis of amyloid production, and in most cases amyloid cardiomyopathy is clinically manifested by rapidly progressive symptoms of heart failure. The article presents a clinical case of a patient with a hereditary type of systemic transthyretin amyloidosis with the involvement of heart, kidneys, liver, nervous system, and the identified mutation in the TTR gene (p.Y89F) has not been previously described in the Russian Federation.

11. The Role of Scintigraphy and Hybrid Single-Photon Emission Tomography in Comparison with Laboratory Data in a Comprehensive Examination of Patients with Secondary Hyperparathyroidism

Author: V. Е. Prokina, А. А. Ansheles, A. V. Tarasov, A. S. Ametov, and V. B. Sergienko
Subjects: scintigraphy, single-photon emission computed tomography, secondary hyperparathyroidism, Medical physics. Medical radiology. Nuclear medicine, R895-920
Abstract: Objective: to estimate the possibilities and determine the diagnostic value of scintigraphy and single-photon emission computed tomography combined with computed tomography (SPECT/CT) in the assessment of the functional state of parathyroids in comparison with laboratory data in patients with secondary hyperparathyroidism (SHPT). Material and methods. The study consistently included 64 patients with the established diagnosis of SHPT due to the acquired vitamin D deficiency or with terminal chronic kidney disease (CKD), with the presence of ultrasound data and laboratory tests of calcium-phosphoric exchange indicators. Neck and mediastum nuclear study with 99mTc-methoxy-isobutyl-isonitrile (MIBI) was performed in the planar two-phase scintigraphy mode according to the standard protocol with an estimation of parathyroid visualization intensity, as well as in SPECT/CT performed 1 hour after MIBI injection. Results. In the group of patients with CKD as a cause of SHPT (n = 14), the most pronounced increase of parathyroid hormone (PTH) level (210.8 ± 103.0 vs. 107.0 ± 40.2 pg/ml in patients with vitamin D deficiency (n = 50, p < 0.001)) and phosphorus (mean 1.39 ± 0.51 mmol/l), as well as excess of normal levels of alkaline phosphatase (407.7 ± 338.1 units/l) were noted. In patients with vitamin D deficiency, impaired parathyroids according to SPECT/CT data was visualized in 8 % of cases, and in patients with CKD in 14.3 %. No significant differences in the mean levels of vitamin D in patients with (n = 46) and without (n = 4) modified parathyroids according to scintigraphy were detected: 26.06 ± 13.19 vs. 25.82 ± 18.80 ng/ml, respectively (p = 0.97). Differences in PTH and calcium levels were not observed: 91.3 ± 39.2 vs. 89.2 ± 29.5 pg/ml (p = 0.90), 2.53 ± 0.21 vs. 2.58 ± 0,15 mmol/l (p = 0.64), respectively. Conclusion. The neck SPECT/CT is a key method of topical imaging of impaired parathyroids in preoperative preparation of patients with SHPT caused by CKD. The method may have a diagnostic value in treatment-resistant patients with vitamin D deficiency and upper-normal PTH and calcium levels in terms of detection of the nodular form of parathyroid hyperplasia. The implementation of SPECT/CT after 1 hour after MIBI injection increases the sensitivity of the study.

Abstract: This paper summarizes the data from updated international protocols and guidelines for diagnosis of transthyretin amyloid cardiomyopathy (ATTR-CM). The invasive and non-invasive diagnosis techniques and their combinations are briefly reviewed; the evidentiary foundations for each diagnostic option and tool are analyzed. The paper describes a customized algorithm for sequential diagnosis and differential diagnosis of patients with suspected ATTR-CM with allowance for the combination of clinical signs and diagnostic findings. Along with the awareness of primary care providers about the red flags of the disease and visualization criteria, as well as providing information to the patients about the possibility of performing therapy of ATTR amyloidosis and the risks of delayed diagnosis, the proposed algorithm enables timely patient routing and prescribing specific treatment.

Abstract: Background: The coronavirus disease-2019 (COVID-19) pandemic significantly affected management of cardiovascular disease around the world. The effect of the pandemic on volume of cardiovascular diagnostic procedures is not known. Objectives: This study sought to evaluate the effects of the early phase of the COVID-19 pandemic on cardiovascular diagnostic procedures and safety practices in Asia. Methods: The International Atomic Energy Agency conducted a worldwide survey to assess changes in cardiovascular procedure volume and safety practices caused by COVID-19. Testing volumes were reported for March 2020 and April 2020 and were compared to those from March 2019. Data from 180 centers across 33 Asian countries were grouped into 4 subregions for comparison. Results: Procedure volumes decreased by 47% from March 2019 to March 2020, showing recovery from March 2020 to April 2020 in Eastern Asia, particularly in China. The majority of centers cancelled outpatient activities and increased time per study. Practice changes included implementing physical distancing and restricting visitors. Although COVID testing was not commonly performed, it was conducted in one-third of facilities in Eastern Asia. The most severe reductions in procedure volumes were observed in lower-income countries, where volumes decreased 81% from March 2019 to April 2020. Conclusions: The COVID-19 pandemic in Asia caused significant reductions in cardiovascular diagnostic procedures, particularly in low-income countries. Further studies on effects of COVID-19 on cardiovascular outcomes and changes in care delivery are warranted.

Subjects: covid-19, cardiology diagnostic tests, Diseases of the circulatory (Cardiovascular) system, RC666-701
Abstract: Aim. To assess the changes in cardiology diagnostics scope in the Russian Federation during the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic.Material and methods. In an online survey organized by the Division of Human Health of the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA), including questions about changes in the workflow of diagnostic laboratories and the scope of cardiac diagnostics from March 2019 (pre-pandemic) to April 2020 (first wave of the pandemic) and April 2021 (recovery stage), 15 Russian medical centers from 5 cities took part.Results. The decrease in the diagnostics scope by April 2020 by 59,3% compared to March 2019, by April 2021, stopped and was replaced by growth (+7,1%, the recovery rate, 112,1%). The greatest increase was in routine examinations, such as echocardiography (+11,6%), stress echocardiography (+18,7%), stress single photon emission computed tomography (+9,7%), and to a lesser extent resting computed tomography angiography (+7,0%) and magnetic resonance imaging (+6,6%). The performance of stress electrocardiography, stress magnetic resonance imaging and positron emission tomography for the diagnosis of endocarditis in April 2021 compared to March 2019 decreased by 10,3%, 63,2% and 62,5%, respectively.Conclusion. Due to the resumption of patient admissions for cardiac examinations during the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic, with the anti-epidemic measures taken and certain changes in the workflow, there has been a recovery in the diagnostics scope in most of the included centers.

18. Possibilities of Evaluating the Dynamics of Left Ventricular Perfusion and Contractility in Patients with Chronic Heart Failure after Implantation of a Heart Contractility Modulator Using Perfusion Single-Photon Emission Computed Tomography

Author: V. A. Amanatova, A. A. Safiullina, T. M. Uskach, A. A. Ansheles, V. B. Sergienko, and S. N. Tereshchenko
Subjects: perfusion single-photon-emission computed tomography, chronic heart failure with a low ejection fraction, modulation of heart contractility, Therapeutics. Pharmacology, RM1-950, Diseases of the circulatory (Cardiovascular) system, RC666-701
Abstract: Perfusion scintigraphy and single-photon emission tomography of the myocardium are promising methods for complex assessment of the state of the left ventricle myocardium in patients with chronic heart failure. These methods of nuclear cardiology can be performed in patients with reduced renal function, as well as the presence of implanted devices such as implantable cardioverters-defibrillators, resynchronizing devices and cardiac modulating therapy, which is their undeniable advantage. The reproducibility of the method is ensured bu fully automated calculation of parameters of myocardial perfusion and contractility. To date, there are no data in the literature on the use of nuclear cardiology methods as an imaging technique in patients with cardiac contractility modulation devises. This paper describes the current possibilities and prospects of nuclear medicine methods in patients with chronic heart failure after implantation of a heart contractility modulator.

25. Myocardial perfusion single-photon emission computer tomography and coronary angiography results in patients with different pretest probability of ischemic heart disease

Author: A. A. Ansheles, I. V. Sergienko, E. I. Denisenko-Kankiya, and V. B. Sergienko
Subjects: myocardial perfusion scintigraphy, coronary angiography, pretest probability of ischemic heart disease, Medicine
Abstract: Aim. To study the relationship between pretest probability (PTP) of ischemic heart disease (IHD), calculated according to the recommendations of the European Society of Cardiology (ESC) of 2013 and 2019, with the perfusion of the left ventricle of the myocardium according to the single-photon emission tomography (SPECT) and the results of the invasive coronary angiography (CAG). Material and methods. The study included 220 patients with a preliminary diagnosis of ischemic heart disease and planned invasive CAG. All patients underwent rest-stress perfusion myocardial SPECT within 1 month prior to or after CAG, standard quantitative parameters of left ventricular perfusion were assessed. Retrospectively clinical data was analyzed and PTP of IHD was assessed according to ESC recommendations for 2013 and 2019. Results. Invasive CAG revealed obstructive lesion of one or more coromary arteries in 204 of the 220 patients (92.7%). In a retrospective analysis, taking into account gender, age and nature of the complaints, as recommended by ESC in 2013, PTP was rated as low (15%) in 13 patients (5.9%), as intermediate (1585%) in 207 patients (94.1%). Following the comprehensive survey (SPECT and CAG) 8 patients with low PTP (61.5%) underwent coronary revascularization. Among patients with intermediate PTP significant transient ischemia according to SPECT was detected in 31 (15.0%), initial at 107 (51.7%). According CAG among patients with intermediate PTP obstructive lesion was found in 192 (92.7%), 113 patients (58.8%) underwent revascularization. According to ESC recommendations of 2019, PTP was rated as low (15%) in 117 patients (53.2%), including 514% in 98 (44.5%). According to a survey (SPECT and CAG) 68 of them (58.1%) underwent revascularization. Conclusion. PTP measurements proposed by ESC can not be applied to patients of the Russian population with suspected ischemic heart disease without significant corrections. 2013 ESC recommendations with higher PTP values for all categories of patients reflect Russian population better, while 2019 recommendations mistakenly attribute patients to low PTP in at least 58% of cases. These results are preliminary and will be expanded in subsequent studies with more detailed analysis of PTP in included patients with suspected IHD.

26. Interpretation of myocardial perfusion SPECT with attenuation correction. Part 2

Author: A. A. Ansheles and V. В. Sergienko
Subjects: single photon emission computed tomography/computed topography, attenuation correction, myocardium, Medical physics. Medical radiology. Nuclear medicine, R895-920
Abstract: Objective: to investigate the possibilities of a combined single photon emission computed tomography/computed tomography (SPECT/CT) system during myocardial perfusion studies and to examine the features of their interpretation.Subjects and methods. In April 2013 to April 2019, the Department of Radionuclide Diagnosis, National Medical Research Center of Cardiology, performed myocardial perfusion SPECT with attenuation correction (AC) in 3144 patients with various cardiovascular diseases. Based on the experience gained, the authors expanded and adjusted the principles of processing and interpreting the results of this study, which they had first set forth in 2014. Special emphasis is placed on the interpretation of apical and septal perfusion defects and diffuse perfusion irregularity, on the demonstration of the role of current reconstruction algorithms in obtaining highest-quality myocardial images, and on the assessment of self-potentialities of lowdose CT findings at myocardial SPECT/CT, as well as on proposals to standardize quantitative parameters for perfusion assessment at myocardial SPECT/CT.Results. AC affected in large measure the interpretation of myocardial perfusion SPECT in most cases. Apical perfusion defect appeared on AC images was observed in 50% of patients without established coronary heart disease and could be interpreted as a normal variant (apical thinning). The diffuse irregularity of perfusion radiopharmaceutical tracer accumulation in the application of the current reconstruction algorithms stood out in a separate pattern as a sign of microcirculatory disturbances. Low-dose CT data allow visualization of a severe thoracic abnormality at imaging and should be reflected in the conclusion. The perfusion study descriptions based on an analysis of AC and nAC images had a greater interoperator consistency than those based on an analysis of only nAC images (w = 0.915 and 0.809, respectively; p = 0.027). At the same time, the use of arithmetic means of the extent of transient ischemia (Reversibility Extent) is better consistent with visual analysis (= 0.08Ѓ}1.46%, p = 0.49).Conclusion. The use of AC and current iterative algorithms at myocardial perfusion SPECT should be part of a mandatory study protocol, since this affects to a large extent the diagnostic value of the technique. The borderline values of disturbed perfusion parameters at AC should be reconsidered.

Subjects: Diseases of the circulatory (Cardiovascular) system, RC666-701
Abstract: Objectives We aimed to explore the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on cardiac diagnostic testing and practice and to assess its impact in different regions in Europe.Methods The online survey organised by the International Atomic Energy Agency Division of Human Health collected information on changes in cardiac imaging procedural volumes between March 2019 and March/April 2020. Data were collected from 909 centres in 108 countries.Results Centres in Northern and Southern Europe were more likely to cancel all outpatient activities compared with Western and Eastern Europe. There was a greater reduction in total procedure volumes in Europe compared with the rest of the world in March 2020 (45% vs 41%, p=0.003), with a more marked reduction in Southern Europe (58%), but by April 2020 this was similar in Europe and the rest of the world (69% vs 63%, p=0.261). Regional variations were apparent between imaging modalities, but the largest reductions were in Southern Europe for nearly all modalities. In March 2020, location in Southern Europe was the only independent predictor of the reduction in procedure volume. However, in April 2020, lower gross domestic product and higher COVID-19 deaths were the only independent predictors.Conclusion The first wave of the COVID-19 pandemic had a significant impact on care of patients with cardiac disease, with substantial regional variations in Europe. This has potential long-term implications for patients and plans are required to enable the diagnosis of non-COVID-19 conditions during the ongoing pandemic.

Author: V. A. Amanatova, A. A. Safiullina, T. M. Uskach, A. A. Ansheles, S. N. Tereshchenko, and V. B. Sergienko
Subjects: perfusion single photon emission computed tomography, heart failure, cardiac contractility modulation, Diseases of the circulatory (Cardiovascular) system, RC666-701
Abstract: Aim. To assess the effect of cardiac contractility modulation (CCM) in patients with heart failure (HF) and atrial fibrillation (AF) on left ventricular (LV) myocardial cellular perfusion using perfusion single photon emission computed tomography (SPECT).Material and methods. 99mTc-MIBI SPECT gated myocardial perfusion imaging was performed in 60 patients with HF and AF before implantation of CCM device and after 6-months follow-up. All patients received long-term optimal medication therapy for HF. Results. The results obtained indicate a significant positive effect of CCM use in patients with HF and AF on LV ejection fraction (increase from 22 [18;30] to 25,5 [19;38] (p=0,002)), LV volume (decrease in LV end-systolic volume from 187 [114;238] to 154 [100;201] (p=0,001), end-diastolic volume from 229 [174;290] to 209 [159;259] (p=0,007)), as well as myocardial perfusion values. There is a favorable myocardial perfusion dynamics, which was more pronounced in nonischemic HF: increase in SRS from 6 [5;9] to 8,0 [6;11] after 6 months (p=0,01)). The extent of impaired perfusion significantly decreases from 12 [9;17] to 9 [6;16] (p=0,04). An indicator reflecting the total impairment of LV myocardial perfusion significantly decreases: total perfusion deficit decreased from 10 [8;14] to 7 [6;14] after 6 months (p=0,02), compared with ischemia-related HF.Conclusion. Perfusion SPECT makes it possible to assess the myocardial cellular perfusion during CCM therapy in patients with HF of various origin and AF. CCM therapy improves myocardial contractility and perfusion in patients with HF and AF.

Subjects: neurotropic scintigraphy, myocardial perfusion single-photon emission computed tomography, primary pulmonary hypertension, Medical physics. Medical radiology. Nuclear medicine, R895-920
Abstract: Objective. To compare cardiac 123I-MIBG and 99m Tc-MIBI single-photon emission computed tomography (SPECT) data in patients with primary pulmonary hypertension (PPH).Material and methods. The study included 22 patients with confirmed diagnosis of PPH, with clinical status assessment, Holter ECG monitoring and rest cardiac ultrasound (US) data. All patients, as well as a group of healthy volunteers (n=20) underwent myocardial perfusion SPECT with 99mTc-MIBI at rest and after treadmill exercise test, and myocardial neurotropic SPECT with 123I-MIBG, performed in 15 min (early phase) and 4 hours (delayed phase) after MIBG administration. LV perfusion abnormalities were evaluated using standard SSS and SDS parameters, RV was assessed visually, RV/LV and IVS/LW uptake ratios were calculated. Global sympathetic activity (SA) was assessed with delayed heart/mediastinum ratio (H/Md ) and MIBG Washout Rate in 4 hours (WR). Regional SA abnormalities were assessed using early Summed MIBG Score (SMSe). MIBG RV/LV and LV IVS/LW uptake ratios were calculated. All parameters were compared with normal database (n=20).Results. The values of a number of myocardial SPECT parameters, both perfusion (SSS, RV/LVMIBI, IVS/LWMIBI) and neurotropic (H/Md, WR, SMSe, IVS/LWMIBG), were significantly worse in PPH patients compared to the control group (all p4) transient LV ischemia in all patients, but in 77% of cases IVS perfusion was stably impaired, causing overall SSS=7 (6–10), presumably due to IVS compression by dilated RV. MIBI RV/LV ratio was 0.61±0.02, indicating that RV was clearly visible, with inhomogeneous MIBI uptake in all cases, but without reliable perfusion defects. Values of H/Md were 1.84±0.18, WR: 27±8%, with no reliable correlations with perfusion parameters. Regional SA defects also were located in IVS predominately, causing SMSe mean value of 8 (6–10) and IVS/LW of 0.69±0.09, both parameters correlated with SSS (r=0.44, p=0.04 and r=-0.48, p=0.02, respectively). All parameters, except RV/LVMIBG, had reliable correlations with systolic pulmonary artery pressure assessed by cardiac US, especially RV/LVMIBI(r=0.64, p

Subjects: cardiotoxicity, cardio-oncology, anthracyclines, heart failure, nuclear imaging, Diseases of the circulatory (Cardiovascular) system, RC666-701
Abstract: The high efficiency of modern chemotherapy has made it possible to achieve great success in the treatment of cancer. Cardiovascular adverse effects are a major disadvantage of anticancer therapy, often requiring low and less effective doses or even drug withdrawal. Nuclear imaging techniques are the most sensitive in early detection of left ventricular damage and dysfunction during chemotherapy. This review presents modern data on the potential of nuclear imaging of cardiotoxicity.

Abstract: BACKGROUND: The extent to which health care systems have adapted to the COVID-19 pandemic to provide necessary cardiac diagnostic services is unknown.OBJECTIVES: The aim of this study was to determine the impact of the pandemic on cardiac testing practices, volumes and types of diagnostic services, and perceived psychological stress to health care providers worldwide.METHODS: The International Atomic Energy Agency conducted a worldwide survey assessing alterations from baseline in cardiovascular diagnostic care at the pandemic's onset and 1 year later. Multivariable regression was used to determine factors associated with procedure volume recovery.RESULTS: Surveys were submitted from 669 centers in 107 countries. Worldwide reduction in cardiac procedure volumes of 64% from March 2019 to April 2020 recovered by April 2021 in high- and upper middle-income countries (recovery rates of 108% and 99%) but remained depressed in lower middle- and low-income countries (46% and 30% recovery). Although stress testing was used 12% less frequently in 2021 than in 2019, coronary computed tomographic angiography was used 14% more, a trend also seen for other advanced cardiac imaging modalities (positron emission tomography and magnetic resonance; 22%-25% increases). Pandemic-related psychological stress was estimated to have affected nearly 40% of staff, impacting patient care at 78% of sites. In multivariable regression, only lower-income status and physicians' psychological stress were significant in predicting recovery of cardiac testing.CONCLUSIONS: Cardiac diagnostic testing has yet to recover to prepandemic levels in lower-income countries. Worldwide, the decrease in standard stress testing is offset by greater use of advanced cardiac imaging modalities. Pandemic-related psychological stress among providers is widespread and associated with poor recovery of cardiac testing.

Abstract: Sudden cardiac death is a cause of fatal outcomes in large proportion of cardiovascular patients. Left ventricle ejection fraction at the moment is the main criteria for sudden cardiac death risk stratification, however the parameter is not enough reliable. Nuclear imaging methods make it to visualize finer pathophysiological processes representing the probability of the life threatening ventricular arrhythmias development. The review is focused on recent data on nuclear imaging for cellular perfusion assessment, transient ischemia, vitality of myocardium and myocardial blood flow, metabolic disorders and sympathetic innervation.

Abstract: Histological analysis of endomyocardial tissue is still the gold standard for the diagnosis of cardiac amyloidosis but has its limitations. Accordingly, there is a need for noninvasive techniques to cardiac amyloidosis diagnostics. Echocardiography and magnetic resonance imaging can show characteristics which may not be very specific for cardiac amyloid. Recently, new opportunities of nuclear imaging in risk stratification and assessment of prognosis for patients with cardiac amyloidosis have appeared. During the last two decades different classes of radiopharmaceuticals have been developed based on compounds tropic to the components of amyloid infiltrates. In this paper we describe the current possibilities and perspectives of nuclear medicine techniques in patients with cardiac amyloidosis, including osteotropic and neurotropic scintigraphy, single-photon and positron emission tomography

Abstract: Aim. To estimate the prevalence of familial hypercholesterolemia (FH) in a sample of Moscow city and Moscow region patients with hypercholesterolemia (HCh) based on lipid spectrum and instrumental methods.Material and methods. The study included two samples of patients (age >18 years), with total cholesterol (TCh) level ≥7.5 mmol/l and/or low-density lipoprotein (LDL) cholesterol level ≥4.9 mmol/l. First sample (n=60) was included to determine secondary hyperlipidemia frequency in newly diagnosed HCh, with measurement of thyroid hormone, glucose and glycated hemoglobin (HbA1c) levels. Patients of the second sample (n=432) from Russian registry of FH (RuFH) were studied by drug therapy assessment, lipid profile measurements, calculation of FH probability according to Dutch and British criteria, carotids duplex scanning (CDS), cardiac perfusion single-photon emission computed tomography (SPECT/CT) using rest/stress protocol.Results. The incidence of secondary dyslipidemia due to diabetes or hypothyroidism in patients with severe HCh was 18.3%. Monotherapy with atorvastatin (34.2%) or rosuvastatin (31.8%), combined therapy with statins and other lipid-lowering drugs (24.4%) prevails in the structure of lipidlowering therapy in patients with severe HCh. The frequency of "definite" FH according to Dutch criteria in HCh patients was 15.3%, "probable" – 18.1%. Patients with definite FH diagnosis showed higher level of TCh (p

Abstract: Background: The extent to which health care systems have adapted to the COVID-19 pandemic to provide necessary cardiac diagnostic services is unknown. Objectives: The aim of this study was to determine the impact of the pandemic on cardiac testing practices, volumes and types of diagnostic services, and perceived psychological stress to health care providers worldwide. Methods: The International Atomic Energy Agency conducted a worldwide survey assessing alterations from baseline in cardiovascular diagnostic care at the pandemic's onset and 1 year later. Multivariable regression was used to determine factors associated with procedure volume recovery. Results: Surveys were submitted from 669 centers in 107 countries. Worldwide reduction in cardiac procedure volumes of 64% from March 2019 to April 2020 recovered by April 2021 in high- and upper middle-income countries (recovery rates of 108% and 99%) but remained depressed in lower middle- and low-income countries (46% and 30% recovery). Although stress testing was used 12% less frequently in 2021 than in 2019, coronary computed tomographic angiography was used 14% more, a trend also seen for other advanced cardiac imaging modalities (positron emission tomography and magnetic resonance; 22%-25% increases). Pandemic-related psychological stress was estimated to have affected nearly 40% of staff, impacting patient care at 78% of sites. In multivariable regression, only lower-income status and physicians’ psychological stress were significant in predicting recovery of cardiac testing. Conclusions: Cardiac diagnostic testing has yet to recover to prepandemic levels in lower-income countries. Worldwide, the decrease in standard stress testing is offset by greater use of advanced cardiac imaging modalities. Pandemic-related psychological stress among providers is widespread and associated with poor recovery of cardiac testing.

Subjects: 123i-mibg, neurotropic scintigraphy, hypertrophic cardiomyopathy, sudden cardiac death, arrhythmias, Medical physics. Medical radiology. Nuclear medicine, R895-920
Abstract: Objective. To explore the features of cardiac sympathetic activity impairments using neurotropic scintigraphy and singlephoton emission tomography (SPECT) in patients with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM), including the context of the risk of sudden cardiac death (SCD).Material and methods. 36 patients with HCM, II–IV NYHA CHF grade, underwent cardiac neurotropic scintigraphy and SPECT with 123I-MIBG. 30 patients also underwent cardiac perfusion SPECT with 99mTc-MIBI, standard quantitative parameters of global and local left ventricular sympathetic activity and perfusion impairments were obtained. After 5 years of follow-up, the analysis of the dependence of the frequency of SCD in patients with HCM on the values of the above parameters was performed.Results. All parameters of perfusion and neurotropic myocardial SPECT were significantly different in patients with HCM compared with the control group (p4) in the main group was detected in 32% of cases, while it had a diffuse character and had no connection with certain coronary artery regions. The volume of regional innervation defects (SMSe) in HCM patients significantly exceeded the total volume of perfusion defects (SSS, p14 predicted the occurrence of SCD with sensitivity of 87.5% and specificity of 57.1%. The risk of five-year mortality from SCD was significantly higher when SMSe >14 (p=0.024). Conclusion. Neurotropic SPECT in patients with HCM is able to identify a group of patients at high risk of sudden cardiac death.

Subjects: pulmonary hypertension, single-photon emission computed tomography, myocardial perfusion, Medical physics. Medical radiology. Nuclear medicine, R895-920
Abstract: Objective: to develop and implement a new processing approach of myocardial perfusion images obtained by single-photon emission computed tomography (SPECT) in patients with pulmonary hypertension (PH). Material and methods. 18 patients with idiopathic pulmonary hypertension underwent gated rest-stress perfusion SPECT with 99mTc-MIBI with CT-attenuation correction. Images were processed manually, with separate reorientation and semi-automatic contouring of both ventricles. MIBI intensity ratio in the right and left ventricles (RV/LV) was calculated using novel volumetric method, in comparison with other described approaches. Results. In patients with PH myocardial perfusion SPECT revealed abnormal RV visualization, dilation and reduced contractility, paradoxical motion and typical perfusion defects of interventricular septum. RV contouring in semi-automatic mode was possible in 100% of cases. The average values of RV/LV ratio in PH patients and normal group was 0.6097 ± 0.0090 and 0.2750 ± 0.0355, respectively (p
